Private vehicles join SNT convoy to Siliguri

Gangtok, 11 Feb: As per information received here, today, Day-3 of the indefinite bandh underway in the Darjeeling Hills, private vehicles also joined the SNT convoy headed for Siliguri under West Bengal police escort. Confirmation on how many vehicles made it past Rangpo is awaited. It may be recalled that an indefinite bandh was called in the Darjeeling Hills following the death of two of its supporters in a police firing at Sibchu in Jalpaiguri district on Tuesday. This time, the bandh has been extended to traffic from Sikkim as well and till today, only SNT vehicles had been allowed through.
